to be fair pretty much all the SA stunts are either mine or yours, so it's no big deal  .

I hope, that Mikey won't be offended, if I don't change strings in my intro.

Yeah, probably my bad there. I mixed stunts when there was one or two replays left instead of three.

Of course. But you found time to spend some time here, and post a few posts. What about me? It's normal for me to have 10 exams a week and do other things.

[Afterlife]

Well I have 5 exams that week. But final exams of sixth form. And I just post 2 or 3 posts because I'm allways online on gtas even if I'm not at home. So when i have few seconds i post something in some topic..
Actually I edited the first stunt and recorded all of them. I only need to do a intro and edit the other stunts.. When would be the last day to post it?

Sorry for double post

Both entries were nice and quite different from each other. MexikanoS did something a bit more powerful and Afterlife created something slow-paced, which fitted the stunts.

I preferred Afterlife's intro, it showed a few of the spots and landings. Fitted well to the concept of your entry. As for the main part, I enjoyed the way that both created your atmosphere. Mexikanos mixed two concepts that I truly enjoy, a powerful atmosphere with the slow-pace of a calm editing. Worked pretty well. As for Afterlife, I think that your concept fitted better the stunts, and something like that was actually what I expected from this match. Calm and dull. Quite surprising that you created something just as I expected.


Voting for Afterlife.

[Afterlife]

Thank you.

MexikanoS: Your entry felt a bit too plain. The color effects were nice, but there should've been a lot more synching to the various beats the song offered, I liked the way you edited the 2nd part of the 2nd stunt, but for the most part it just felt way too empty & didn't give a proper mood, the angles seemed uninspired & there just wasn't very much to accompany the mood & the pace of the song, it was pretty generic throughout.

Afterlife: Despite the rather boring intro, the main part was pretty solid, although the opener had a bit too much shake to it. I liked the way you used the motion effects to accompany the soothing pace of the song. The colors were very relaxing & fitting to the song. Despite some minor fuck ups, the angles were also quite solid & showcased the stunts quite nicely whilst enhancing the mood of the song. Overall, a simple, yet well-done entry.

Vote goes to Afterlife!
